(89.5 x 40cm.), 39¾in. (101cm.) high. (2)* Condition: Each has a key. The interiors have a single removable shelf. The tops are decorated to the same standard as the remainder of the pieces. The painted decoration is definitely original to the pieces and there is very little evidence of any retouching.The backs are nicely constructed with panels. They are in largely original condition. There are minor painted-in repairs to shrinkage cracks across both tops, and a few minor retouches to veneer chips on the edges of the tops. The tops have therefore definitely been repolished - the remainder of the surface appears to be original and in good order. One top has a patch of polish which is worn (visible in the photos). There is a minor repair to one section of moulding on the base of one commode, which has left an area which is slightly lighter in polish colour. There are no replaced parts or major repairs, and just a couple of very small and minor veneer losses to the edges. The commodes are structurally very sound and the doors open cleanly. The locks work well. No wood worm, cracks, weak points etc.

It recently appeared on the market at Christies, London, 14 May 2003, lot 140 (realised £77,675 including premium). It can also be seen illustrated in C.Claxton Stevens & S. Whittington, 18th Century English Furniture, The Norman Adams Collection, p.108. Another version of the same item, but without the entre-lac moulded border was made for the Buff Bedroom at Paxton House, presumably also by Chippendale (see C. Gilbert, The Life and Work of Thomas Chippendale, fig.417) and is illustrated alongside the aforementioned Paxton bureau, together with a design for a bureau dressing table from the Director (1754) PL.XLI (figs 415 & 416). A George III mahogany kneehole possibly by Thomas Chippendale was sold Christies, London 22 January 2009, lot 29 which can be closely compared with the above lot having a part-fitted mahogany lined frieze drawer, laminated corner blocks behind the feet.
